Government planes have captured thousands of "enemies" nearly three miles off the ground. These "enemies" and their kind annually cause millions of dollars damage to growing crops. The agriculture department has ft fleet of planes that searches the skies for plant insects. Some of the planes are in the air almost every day of the year trapping the pests. Many insects fly long distances and thus spread infestation over large areas. Others soar high and then let the prevailing wind carry them. By learning their direction and approximate numbers, the de? partment is able to chart their spread and take action against therrt in new areas. P. A. Glick, a department "entomologist, has been flying in the South and Southwest for several years, collecting many of the important and destructive crop pests. He reported the capture of boll weevils at 2,000 feet, spotted cucumber beetles at 3,000 feet and leafhoppers at altitudes up to 13,000 feet. Mosquitoes, common in lower layers, were found as high as 5,000 feet. The insects are collected in traps especially designed for use on planes and controlled from the cockpit or cabin. In practice it is the rule to keep a trap section open for a designated number of minutes with the plane flying level at a certain altitude, then close the section and mount 500 or 1,000 feet and bag another sample. TUBUS* AND GOOSE . !.T < ' Party of Specialists To Trace Coronado Trail TUCSON, ARIZ.--A party of historical experts, using a specially constructed, high axle automobile, is traveling across northern Mexico to find the exact place where Francisco Vasquez de Coronado first set foot on American soil some 400 years ago. The site, when found, will mark the spot where a $10,000 Coronado memorial will be constructed by "the Coronado Cuarto-Centennial commission, which is financing the trip of the experts. No one, not even members of the expedition, cared to predict how long the investigation might require. Most of the route is over nearly impassable trails and unmarked desert. In some spots, pack mules will be used. Members of the Coronado commission decided to erect the Coronado memorial on the U. S.-Mexico boundary but complications set in when they tried to find the right spot. Residents of Douglas, Ariz., believe Coronado and his Conquistadores journeyed up the San Pedro valley, through Douglas, while citizens of Nogales assert the explorer went up through their Santa Cruz valley. The two cities are about 75 miles apart, both on the international boundary. Farmer--I make my meoey of the turkey. Tailor (fingering his iron)--And I make mine ont of the goose.

Stomach Hyperacidity Held Largely Mythical BOSTON.--Acid stomach is largely a myth and calls for rearrangement of living habits rather than the use of alkaline preparations, according to Prof. Chester M. Jones of Harvard Medical school. "Hyperacidity," he said in a lecture, "usually is only a supposed chemical disorder of the stomach and taking medicine is not the way to attack the fundamental cause, which is "usually one of improper dietary or living habits." Jones said that gas in the stomach is rarely due to fermentation and usually is due to "swallowed air." Persons suffering from digestive troubles, he said, often do not have an organic" disease but suffer because of the abuse of alcohol er tobacpo. ~"7 ' H.

New Testament Read 70 Times in Last Ten Years CAMBRIDGE, MASS.--Since 1930 Benjamin Beers has read the complete Bible 19 times and the New Testament 70 times more. "It is the only book I care to read," he says, "and I have derived from it comfort and contentment of the mind." Beers is an ordained minister in the United Pentacostal Council of the Assemblies of God and hopes to become an evangelist. « The shortest time to read the Bible, Beers said, is a period of 85 hours. "I do not read, the Book to 'show off,' but simply for the release it gives me from worry and care." Presence of Mind Not only quick thinking and courage, but a good bit of heft, too, help make a hero, a Danish dispatch reveals. When a Danish army recruit dropped a "live" hand grenade during drill, another recruit clapped his ,steel helmet over it, then sat down on the helmet "with the full weight of his peasant physique." A few seconds later the explosion threw him three feet into the air. But otherwise no harm was done. The helmet had withstood the shock of the explosion.
